About me
Being able to express how you truly feel in a safe and supportive environment, without the worry of upsetting others, can help you understand your struggles and how they may be affecting you and your life.
Counselling is a place where you can be yourself and talk openly about what is on your mind. With more self-awareness and understanding, together we can find a new way to move forward and experience personal growth, which sometimes we thought was not possible.
Some of the areas I work with include: Anxiety, Stress and feeling overwhelmed, Anger Management, Depression and Low mood, Trauma, Abuse, Low Self-esteem and Confidence, Relationship issues, Loss and Bereavement, Gender Identity, Self-harm, Suicidal thoughts, Bullying.
I have an integrative approach to counselling combining various techniques and theories.
A Psychodynamic approach helps us look back over our past, whilst Person Centred approach focuses on how we feel now.
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) allows us to understand how our thoughts affect our feelings and reactions, whereas Solution Focussed Therapy enables us to find a positive way to move forward.
Additionally, I use strategies from Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) and Mindfulness; these help to develop healthy ways of dealing with stress and to regulate our emotions.
I offer face to face, online and telephone counselling.
My therapy room is located in the rural village of Leighton Bromswold, in Cambridgeshire, bordering Northamptonshire and Bedfordshire, with access from the A14.

Member organisations

BACP is one of the UK’s leading professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy with around 60,000 members. The Association has several different categories of membership, including Student Member, Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP, Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Accred) and Senior Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Snr Acccred). Registered and accredited members are listed on the BACP Register, which shows that they have demonstrated BACP’s recommended standards for training, proficiency and ethical practice. The BACP Register was the first register of psychological therapists to be accredited by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA). Accredited and senior accredited membership are voluntary categories for members who choose to undertake a rigorous application and assessment process to demonstrate additional standards around practice, training and supervision. Individual members will have completed an appropriate counselling or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but they won’t appear on the BACP Register until they've demonstrated that they meet the standards for registration. Student members are still in the process of completing their training. All members are bound by the BACP Ethical Framework and a Professional Conduct Procedure.

Additional information
We start with an initial session to explore your concerns and focus on how we can work together going forward. This first session is to help you to know that you have chosen the right therapist. The connection, rapport and trust between us are essential for you to feel comfortable and allow me to help you to take the steps to help yourself.
The number of sessions needed is not set, and is flexible with your needs in mind, and is totally within your hands.
